5.1.1 EFA (External Feature Access)
Description
Normally, an extension user can only access features within the PBX. However, when performing External Feature Access (EFA) the extension user performs features outside of the PBX, such as using the transfer services of the telephone company or host PBX. When EFA is performed, the PBX sends a flash/recall signal to the telephone company or the host PBX (→ 8.1.5 Host PBX Access Code (Access Code to the Telephone Company from a Host PBX)).
This feature is only available on CO line calls.
This feature is performed by pressing the EFA button or the FLASH/RECALL button that is set to EFA mode (→ 6.1.2 Flash/Recall/Terminate).
Conditions
•Flash/Recall Time
The Flash/Recall time can be assigned for each CO line port.
•EFA Button
A flexible button can be customized as the EFA button.
•It is possible to perform this feature by entering the feature number while the current call is placed on Consultation Hold (e.g., is going to be transferred to an extension of the host PBX).
